Paris Saint-Germain cruised into the Champions League last 16 with a crushing 7-0 home victory over fellow French side Brest in their knockout phase playoff second leg on Wednesday (Feb 19) to secure a 10-0 aggregate triumph. The game was one for the record books. For PSG, it marked their most dominant victory in European competition while Brest’s maiden Champions League appearance came to a brutal end as they suffered the heaviest defeat recorded by a French side in Europe's premier club competition. PSG are now unbeaten in their last 32 competitive meetings with Brest, a streak dating back to 1985.
Paris Saint-Germain roared into the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League with a thumping victory over Brest. Luis Enrique's side will now face Liverpool or FC Barcelona with the draw due to take place on Friday (Feb 21) at 11:00 GMT, in Nyon Switzerland.
Already leading 3-0 from the first leg of their knockout play-off, the hosts again exhibited their superiority over a fellow French side they have now defeated four times this season – scoring 18 times in the process.
Bradley Barcola extended their advantage with a neat near-post effort and his fellow winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia tapped in PSG's second of the evening before the break.
Portugal international Joao Neves also hit the crossbar for the hosts, before his compatriot and midfield partner Vitinha curled a low shot into the right corner from 18 yards just before the hour mark.
From there PSG moved through the gears.
Goncalo Ramos teed up fellow substitute Desire Doue for their fourth, the impressive Nuno Mendes slid in Achraf Hakimi's teasing ball for a fifth, Ramos' deft finish brought a sixth and teenager Senny Mayulu rounded off the scoring with four minutes left.
It ensured a miserable night in the French capital for Brest, who only threatened sporadically when Mathias Pereira Lage's placed effort was cleared off the line by PSG captain Marquinhos and Pierre Lees-Melou hit the post with a curling effort.
